    This unit provides decent quality audio for the price. Nothing to get too excited about but it works and doesn't break the bank. Overall would recommend.

    So far so good. This is the sound bar that came with purchase of the Frame TV and with the Best Buy plan. Setup was easy, and the sound quality is better than the built in sound with the Frame.

    We lost the sound on the main tv months ago, and if anything could be heard, it was impossible to undrstand what was said. Yhis sound bar is exceptional. We had not realized what we had been missing even when the tv speakers were working. We enjoy listening to music and that is also amazing. The guys installing and demonstrating the sound bar were really nice & polite and very informative. They did an excellent job and did not leave anything lying around.

    Purchased with a new TCL TV because the sales associate felt the TV speakers were poor. TV speakers were fine. The soundbar was better, but not by much, not $200 better. The soundbar does support multiple inputs, not a feature we needed. Rated lower on value, especially because it is now on sale for $150. We returned the soundbar.

    Works great with a samsung tv, however, you have to use the HDMI cable for it to work with QSymphony. It's not the loudest unit so don't expect a drastic difference from your normal TV speakers. I like it for the bluetooth connectivity.

    Very easy to hook up. Added to my new 43" Samsung. The speaker on it was very small and very poor sound quality, especially in an open room. Sound was fantastic after adding to my TV.

    It’s ok. I like more base. I think I’m going to exchange it with the one with the subwoofer. I didn’t think I had room for it but I do.

    Great sound for a small area, keep in mind this is NOT meant for surround sound. If you have a small apartment living room, this is definitely your ticket!
